Day 16 - Wednesday

Definitely starting to get my focus back after last weekend. We had a great dinner last night, and I'm planning something similar tonight. Today we spent 3 hours at the pool, so that was tons of fun! I'm proud because we were there for a birthday party and I avoided the cupcakes pretty easily. It's becoming less and less of a challenge to walk away. Yay! I just have to remember how I felt on Day 10 of the challenge... I want that back! Today I'm definitely feeling closer to it than I have the last few days. It's definitely grocery day though, so pulling things together for snacks was a little more difficult. Who knew I would have to grocery shop SOOOO much!? We eat lots of food here... but it's the right kind of food. I think the main difference is that Mike is taking lunch and snack everyday too, so that adds up. Plus, with the girls eating the same things too, we go through food so fast. Two weeks in to the challenge though and I am very proud of our new lifestyle!

Here is day 16:

7:45 - Thyroid and first pack of pills and catalyst - The girls slept in!

8:15 - Breakfast shake - second pill pack

10:00 - Protein bar in the car on the way to the pool

12:00 - Half a roast beef sandwich with a slice if cheese and an orange

2:30 - Spark and catalyst, handful of dark chocolate chips

3:45 - eggs, sausage, cheese on a corn tortilla - kind of like a breakfast taco =) Told you I need to go to the store.

4:30 - Popsicle - homemade with chocolate almond milk, peanut butter and banana. it was awesome!

6:00 - Grilled Chicken, okra, zucchini, baked beans

9:00 - Rice cake with dark chocolate almond butter... I bought it today to use occasionally as a treat, but I had to try it! So good!

Day 16 Summary -

Today seemed better than yesterday, but I think I can do better. I think I'm just really missing exercise. My legs are soooo sore, but I'm going to go to the indoor Stroller Strides class tomorrow just to see if I can loosen up a little. I've GOT to exercise! That's it for today, off too bed.
